Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious and well-furnished rooms with lovely balconies and comfortable beds. However, guests walking around fully naked may not be suitable for a family-friendly environment. Check-in was a bit delayed despite early request. The sea views from the rooms are truly stunning.
I had a cozy stay at the hotel, with spacious rooms and friendly service. The convenient location near the bus stop and ocean was great, but the noise from barking dogs at night was a downside. The dining options offered a good variety of dishes but could have been better with some improvements.
The hotel is beautifully situated right by the Atlantic, offering a great buffet and omelette station. However, there were issues with ant presence and the need for new bedding. Access to the rooms may be challenging for those with mobility concerns due to being two flights of stairs down.
I had an amazing stay at the hotel! The rooms were very comfortable and spacious, with well-arranged closets that made unpacking a breeze. The bed was cozy, the sea view from the balcony was stunning, and the large bathroom was spotless. Everything looked exactly like the orange one in the publicity photos, which was impressive.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The room was clean and comfortable, although the sea view didn't exactly match what I expected. The service was good, especially once the manager was back, and the location, while busy, was convenient being close to the ocean. Dining offered a variety of options and the facilities were sufficient.
